Where is my name from?

December 7th, 2005

I am confused. ….the name Doreen (that’s me) is supposed to come from the Greek name Dorotheos - Doro meaning ‘Gift’ and Theos meaning ‘God’ but for the life of me I cant find any information about any famous people or the origin of the name Dorotheos. It seems to be from Ancient Greece, maybe there is no information on record and I’m hunting for nothing. Apparently the name Dorotheus (spelled with a ‘u’) is French but it also derives from Dorotheos. Does anyone have useful information for me?
